          Appeal No. 1999-2122                                                        
          Application No. 08/564,659                                                  


               125.  In a method as set forth in claim 124 wherein                    
               the positive voltage on the anode and the negative voltage on          
          the target have values to provide a deposition of the sputtered             
          atoms with a substantially uniform thickness on the substrate and           
          on the walls of the groove in the substrate.                                
               126.  In a method as set forth in claim 124 wherein                    
               the positive voltage on the anode and the negative voltage on          
          the target have values to provide a substantial filling of the              
          groove of the substrate with the sputtered atoms and to provide the         
          deposition of the sputtered atoms with a substantially planar               
          surface on the substrate including the filled groove.
